   Hey everybody. Did anyone besides xSakurax see yesterday's post? Not to belittle Sakura's importance, but if you haven't seen yesterday's post, please check it out.

Well, joining the doctor for my brother's therapy session (see yesterday's post) wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. It was actually kind of cool to get my view out into the open. She would like me to bring in some of the artwork I did at the times I was really pissed off and/or depressed (she's studying how creativity helps people express their negative emotions). I have 2 works like that, since you guys don't know yet. I'm the only one to have seen these pieces yet. I sure hope that lady doesn't turn around and show them to my mom, ‘cause those were some SCARY drawings! >_<
Just out of curiosity, and you don't have to answer if you don't want to, but does anyone else here use paper and pencil to blast when you're really mad? I've produced 2 pieces, like I said earlier, by venting with my drawings. Am I the only one that does that?

This piece was submitted the other day by Jennifer Li. Please take a look, because it's really deep.

My aunt has that quote behind a frame in her house. Pretty cool, huh?

And on the opposite side of the spectrum, you know how I'm assigning songs to the characters of my manga? The other day, I found the perfect song for Satan (my manga's about the ultimate physical and spiritual struggle between good and evil, so of course Satan's gonna' be in it, silly!). The song is "Devil's Dance" by Metallica (most of the characterization songs are either rock or metal).
Just look at the lyrics. Doesn’t this sound exactly like what the Devil would say to convince people to follow him?

"Yeah, I feel you to
Feel, those things you do
In your eyes I see a fire that burns
So free to you
That's wanting through
Deep inside you know,
The seeds I plant will grow

One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah c'mon, c'mon now take a chance
That's right
Let's dance

Snake, I am the snake
Tempting, that bite you take
Let me free your mind,
leave yourself behind
Be not afraid
I've got what you need
Hunger I will feed

One day you will see
And dare to come down to me
Yeah c'mon, c'mon now take a chance
That's right
Let's dance

Yeah, come dancin'

It's nice to see you here"

Cool, huh? Plus, the instrumental part sounds really strong and evil-sounding. I'd love to subtly allude to this song with things like having Satan whistle the tune to this song as he makes his exits from scenes. Either this tune, or the tune to "The God that Failed", because both those songs sum up Satan's basic nature and philosophy.

By the way, I have some good news! MichaelsGirl91's friend Sandy is now off the Prayer List! He is no longer suspected to be resorting to masochism (commonly known as "cutting") in times of depression! Or prayers have been answered! This isn't the first time we may have had a hand in helping someone out with prayer, and it most certainly won't be the last! \m/^_^\m/

Here's an optical illusion for you!
This was made using photography manipulation, and is entitled, "Pay-back".

   Hey everybody! EAMR submitted a new piece of artwork yesterday! Check it out!:


It's Momiji from Fruits Basket!
Want to see something cool? Move your cursor over the pic.
Pretty awesome, eh?
Since giving it that effect sort of sucks away a bit of its quality, here's the un-edited form:
Image hosted by Photobucket.com

How cool is that? So much detail, and it started out as a doodle! And the colors are awesome! Great job, Elves!

Today was pretty rough for me, and I'm really stressing over my exams to. *sigh*, not feeling my best here.

If you haven't seen yesterday's post, please take a look. I spent a good long while on it.

You may have noticed that today's post has been relatively short (especially my usually in-depth analysis of Lindsey’s awesome artwork). That's because NOW I've got to go with my mom and my brother to go see my brother's therapist. Yes, therapist. Now do you see just how much my brother and I are at odds? I can't stand him. He says that AC/DC, Guns and Roses, Metallica, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, King's X, CKY and Flogging Molly are lame, yet he watches The Disney Channel!!! What the crap!? That's a big no-no! >:P

Anyway, I'll see you all tomorrow.

   Caught Under Wheels That Roll
Alright everybody, I know that I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but this is the greatest CD in the history of heavy metal! Last night I finished up the last four songs on Disc 1, and it was intense! No-Leaf Clover is fairly discordant when you listen to part of it, but as a whole, it's a wonderfully original song, unlike anything Metallica had written before. James did an outstanding job hitting all those high and low notes. Hero of the Day is deep and serious, and Devil's Dance is strong and wicked-sounding. And my personal favorite, Bleeding Me, the finale of the first concert, is absolutely amazing. It's so deep and beautiful, that you really feel the things that it was written about. It's just one of those songs that really get to you, ya' know? And the symphony just makes it even better. Here's a quote from the song:

"This thorn in my side
is from the tree I planted"

So simplistic, yet so true. I probably don't even have to explain what that saying means.

The chorus is particularly powerful:

"Caught under wheels that roll
I take the leash,
I'm bleeding me
Can't stop to save my soul
I take the leash that's leading me
I'm bleeding me
No, I can't take it
Caught under wheels that roll
I'm bleeding me"

You'd have to hear it to see just how poignant it really is, but I seriously think it'd be enough to make some of you cry. It's just that powerful.

Lindsey thankfully had a safe trip back home from college. Let's give her a cheer for finishing her education!

Karen (AKA Living Doll....man that's a creepy Otaku name ^_^') will be graduating from High School soon, so she deserves some praise as well! She recently finished her speech as class Salutatorian, so now all she has to do is deliver it at graduation. Let's pray that her graduation goes even better then OK for her and her peers! Though her Yuki costume's not finished, her Yuki wig is (Karen has some sort of super-human ability when it comes to wigs). She's got a quick pic of it on her site for us!

Let's see, what else happened today?
I had a cheeseburger for lunch today (yes, I know, it's not all that interesting. Just wait for it). I took a couple bites of it, and guess what happened. A big drop of ketchup fell right on my crotch! >///< It was so embarrassing! I wiped it up with a napkin, but it left a lovely little reddish-brown stain in the worst of all places. But nobody noticed, aside from the people I was sitting with, and they were cool about it. It was pretty funny, actually, because mark was all like, "Here, let me get that for ya' buddy!", and then jokingly picked up a napkin and pretended to try and wipe it for me. XD And I was all like, "Ack! Cut it out Mark!", and jumped back like 3 ft.!

Here's an optical illusion for you all!
What do you see here?

This piece is entitled, "Message of Love from the Dolphins". Though you see only the "love" part at first, if you look closely you'll notice that there's no couple there at all! Only dolphins!

I'll see you all tomorrow!

=^_^= That's my Erin-chan! She has been feeling progressively better since her side-pain started, plus she's recovered from feeling down about her super crap-tastic day earlier the other week (we all know how much those kinds of days can suck). So to show us that she's back to her normally up-beat and chipper self, she drew us this wonderfully cute pic! Those who know her as deeply as I do know that Erin (Miyoko-chan is her Otaku name, if you don't know) is just an absolute joy to be around and be friends with. ^_^d Please also check out the other four wonderful pieces of artwork that Erin-chan submitted yesterday.

Anywho, there's a new Quote of the Week and a new Poll of the week on the top of my site. I tallied the final results of last week's poll on yesterday's post, if you want to see. And that reminds me: If you didn't see yesterday's post, please check it out.

Man, I am LOVING my new S&M (Symphony & Metal) CD (check out my 2 previous posts for more info). Sunday night I listened to The Ecstasy of Gold (intro), The Call of the Ktulu, Master of Puppets, Of Wolf and Man, and The Thing That Should Not Be, and I nearly passed out! Then last night I listened to Fuel and The Memory Remains, and they were INCREDIBLE! They were so much better then the studio versions of the songs! I was getting chills, it was so good! As soon as my mom fixes my e-mail, I can post some of those songs for you guys! But, that's only if you'll listen to them.

Did anyone else here watch Samurai Champloo on Saturday besides me and Erin-chan? Man, that was cool! I love how they blended in that Hip-Hop element. And the fight scenes were so beautiful and action-packed! If you've been to Erin's site recently, you may have seen her response to my accusations of the animators being immature when animating Fuu's chest area. It wasn't an immature animation form, it was just the animators slipping in a visual joke according to the situation. Just as Erin so observantly pointed out, Fuu was carrying 2 caster shells for fire-works in her shirt, both of which were sphere-shaped (round). Though it was supposed to look like exactly what I thought it was, it was just a one-time situation joke. Thank goodness, because it's just gross when animes over-animate breasts to the point of just being ridiculous. I don't know who they were aiming for with that effect, because any guy who gets off on that stuff needs some serious help. XP

The Prayer List is on the previous post, by the way. So here's another optical illusion for you!

You probably already know that there's not a giant hole in the side of this building, and the "hole" is just a painting. But no matter how many times you tell yourself it's just a giant mural, your brain still wants to believe it's the real deal!

Thanks everybody, and I'll see you tomorrow!

   What irks me is just how stupid some people here think we are. Puer examp'lee: Art thieves. By now, you all have probably heard of an "artist" by the name of pepsicola. For those who haven't, pepsicola stole ElvesAteMyRamen's unfinished Dark and Diasuke (sp?) pic that she recently posted on her site (you know, the one all the fangirls were up in arms about because they wanted Lindsey to leave them naked o_o). He even stole two pieces from banzaiinu1 a day earlier. This moron is not only the lowest bottom-feeder in the artistic circle, but he/she also has some SERIOUS issues. His/her site blares about him/her being soooooo good at drawing, making AMV's, avatars, and etc. (and what isn't self-glorification BS is just plain vulgarity EX: "Location: up yur ass"). This guy's got some kinda' inferiority complex or something. He's also stolen an AMV from banzaiinu1, and EAMR's Pirates of the Caribbean Avatar! I left him/her a couple angry comments, and you probably should to. But don't be mean about it and lower yourself to his/her level. Leave an angry comment, but not a mean or nasty one. Instead, you can be mean here!
Hey, pepsicola! I got a message for ya'! (^)>_<(^)
Yeah! My first time flipping someone off this site! Take that, biiii-otch!
Anywho, we're all here for you, Lindsey, and we're also here for anyone else who's been hurt by thievery.

Whoa, guys, I gotta' tell you about something. Have you ever seen/heard something so awesome that you had to stop reading/listening to it because you were afraid you might give yourself an aneurysm or mental-whiplash if you kept it up? Well, my S&M CD (please see previous post) is that way for me. I was listening to it last night, and I had to stop, because it was just sooooo good! I wanted to savor it, because it's so awesome! I listened to the first 5 songs out of 21, and it's already blowing my mind! Even the way the songs are listed on the back are awesome. Instead of just being written out, they're on a sheet of paper on a musical sheet-holder (is there a better name for those things?) and are written as follows (the actual names of the symphonized songs are on the previous post):
(Disc 1) (Disc 2)

Ktulu Nothing
Puppetz Sleepz
Wolf Bellz
Thingy -Human
Fuel Roam
Memory Outlaw
Clover Sad
Hero One
Devil **********
Bleedin Sand
Battery

How cool is that!?

Anywho, it's about time for a new Poll of the Week, isn't it? First, let me tally the results:
I'm honestly quite surprised. Our "Prince Yuki" only received 7 votes. Not bad, but he tied with Kurama and even Kyo! With how many Yuki fans there are on this site (The Yuki Fanclub started by EAMR has over 100 members) I expected Yuki to be in first place. Ed Elric and Kenshin both only got 2 votes (it says Kenshin got 3, but one is from me, because I had to vote to see the results, and Kenshin was the random choice I happened to select), along with Yushke (YYH) and my buddy Josh (Ghost Hunter). But what I'm MOST surprised at was who came in first place. 0///0 Say wha-? I did? Are you serious? ^///^ I only put my name on there as sort of an experiment. Awww, that's so cool! I never expected to win! Thank you so much to those who voted for me!

Anyway, here's the Prayer List:
My Pastor
ElvesAteMyRamen (Her end of the year work and computer)
MichaelsGirl91 and her friend Sandy
Miyoko-chan
The Victims of the Christmas Day Tsunami
Vankala 86, her friend Mel, and Mel’s fiancé as he serves in Iraq
xSakurax
Akane the Fox, her friend, and her friend's boyfriend in Re-hab
SILVER TIGER
Those who are suffering from breast cancer, as added by atreyu7slip
TravelingDisciple
And his friends Tigger and Floyd
Honoto
jennifer92
My Grandmother
The family that had their house burn down
And Mark

And here's another optical illusion for you all!
This is entitled "The Lady of the Lake". Under the clear winter sky, all is not well with the lake. The restless spirit of the woman who drowned in those cold waters makes her sorrow-filled walk around the lake grounds. But, just where is she coming from?

   Too Cool!
Hi everybody! Guess where I am.
I'm at my grandma's! This trip over the weekend has sort of impeeded my study process, but nowhere near as much as I thought it would. This trip has actually been great! Not only do I get to spend time with my grandma and my Dad, but I also don't have to deal with my brother OR my Mom! (I love my Mom, but she can be pretty intense sometimes) Plus, I just got back from my Dad taking me to an art supply store! It was awesome, because it's so much cheaper to buy here in the mountains then down in the city! He got me a sketch-book, a circle stencil, a curve stencil (for speed-lines) and a 12 inch maniquin for poses! That is just so awesome! And that maniquin only cost 6 bucks! It would have cost me 20 if I bought it at Michael's or something! If it is in fact a franchise, it's called "Cheap Joe's Art Supplies". But I don't know if it's a company with muliple stores or just a single private buissness. Though I'd bet money that it's a single store (sorry, -_-') because my Dad knows 'Cheap Joe' in person. I got to hand it to him, Cheap Joe really IS cheap!

And that's not all! To top it off, guess what my Dad bought me at the local Wall*Mart up here.
.............S&M, Baby!
What? Why are you looking at me like that? Oh, for those who don't know, S&M is when Metallica preformed their biggest hits alongside the San Francisco Orchestra (who did the back-up for the songs) as a concert. "S&M" stands for "Symphony & Metal". Geeze, get your minds out of the gutters! ;P
Anyway, S&M includes symphonized versions of the songs (in order) The Ecstacy of Gold (the intro), The Call of the Ktulu, Master of Puppets, Of Wolf and Man, The Thing that Should Not Be, Fuel, The Memory Remains, No-Leaf Clover, Hero of the Day, Devil's Dance, Bleeding Me, (Disc 2) Nothing Else Matters, Until it Sleeps, For Whom the Bell Tolls, -Human, Wherever I May Roam, The Outlaw Torn, Sad but True, One, Enter Sandman and Battery! So Awesome!

Anywho, I've got to go. And I'm sorry if I didn't comment on your sites yesterday and today. I'm sort of busy today, and I was in the car driving up here all of yesterday. Kind'a hard to use the internet when you have no cable or even a phone line to use. :-P

I'll see youall tomorrow! I've got to go study!

   Lifestyle determins your dancestyle

Video code provided by Music Video Codes

FRANTIC!!! Heh heh, Erin-chan had an absolutely crap-tastical day yesterday, so she's been feeling pretty down. But she mentioned on yesterday's post that she liked the song "Frantic", so I thought it might cheer her up just a little to put it up for her. It's a great video anyway. Nice time-lapse effects, several kick-booTAY car wrecks, a true message about the dangers of alcohol abuse, and about 4/5th's of the way through, some great close-ups on dear Mr. Hetfield's big ol' teeth! Look at them big ol' scary teeth!

And speaking of yesterday's post, please check it out if you haven't already.

And speaking of the ever-so-snuggleable Erin-chan, she submitted 2 new pics!

Erin submits a lot of artwork, and though I love each and every bit of it, she submits so often that if I posted every pic she did the whole process of posting her work on my post would start to loose its meaning. So instead, I post the pieces that really impress me, such as these:

Image hosted by Photobucket.com
Awwwwww, such a cute little Erin-chan chibi. She says that this captures her emotion for most of yesterday. And for those that don't know, Erin recently dyed her hair a deep mahogany brown, like mine! I gave her her natural blonde color in that pic I drew of her because I thought blonde made her look more angelic. But she's down right adorable either way!
And this piece caught me off guard because of how rarely artists realize just how deep and versatile Metallica's lyrics are.

Image hosted by Photobucket.com
That's Erin's OC Shinji, and beside him is a segment from the lyrics of one of Metallica's all-time classics, "Wherever I May Roam". Rock On, Erin! \m/>_<\m/

*sigh*, I found out that I have to spend the weekend at or traveling to and from my grandmother's house up in the mountains. I really need this weekend to rest and prepare for my finals. I love my grandma, and I need to visit her, but almost any other week would have been better. -_-'

Here's the current Prayer List:
My Pastor
ElvesAteMyRamen (Her end of the year work and computer)
MichaelsGirl91 and her friend Sandy
Miyoko-chan
The Victims of the Christmas Day Tsunami
Vankala 86, her friend Mel, and Mel’s fiancé as he serves in Iraq
xSakurax
Akane the Fox, her friend, and her friend's boyfriend in Re-hab
SILVER TIGER
Those who are suffering from breast cancer, as added by atreyu7slip
TravelingDisciple
And his friends Tigger and Floyd
Honoto
jennifer92
My Grandmother
The family that had their house burn down
And Mark

And here's another optical illusion in artwork!
This was made with some pretty well done photo-manipulation. The contractor said it was a spacious lawn, but this is ridiculous! (You'll realize what I mean in a second if you haven't already.)

   Metal, Metal, All the Way!!!
"Yo, Hey! Sup' err-ibody!?" Thought I'd do a Hip-Hop style intro, sort of as a spoof on Nelly's "Ride with Me". (Yeah, like I know ANYTHING about Hip-Hop. XP I'm a metal-head white-boy, through and through!)

Woo, we had a doozy of a thunderstorm last night. There was lightning everywhere! We sat on the porch and just watched the lightning, which several times struck very close our neighborhood. It blew out our cable and internet for the night. And this was almost all cloud-to-ground! There was ambulances and everything. Boy, it was like God was like God was giving a heavy metal concert! I wanted to go and put on "Ride the Lightning", but I couldn't find the CD.

I need to ask you guys to add Erin (Miyoko-chan) to your prayers. She had one of those REALLY crappy days that just make you really need a friend to get you back up on your feet. Please pray for her and give her your support.
Please also add TravelingDisciple's friend Floyd to the prayer list (TD was pretty shady on the details, so I don't know why). If TD is reading this, please tell Floyd to paint himself pink for his Halloween costume (half of you are laughing right now, and the other half of you are sitting their and scratching your head).

Some of you may have been a little confused a bit back when I mentioned "Super Size Me", in the fact that some of you didn't know what a "Shock-umentary" is. Well, here's a quick breakdown of documentary movie types:

Documentary
A movie centered on a study, along with some opinions of the creators, which are designed to persuade and inform you. "F 9/11" fits under this category, I think, but it might also qualify as a "shock-umentary" as well.

Shock-umentary
The same as a Documentary, only the message is more urgent, and the way it's shown is more drastic. "Super Size Me" fits under this category.

Mock-umentary
A movie that is shot LIKE a Documentary, but uses actors and is meant to be funny. "Spinal-tap" is the premium example of this, and is a Mock-umentary of a Rock-umentary.

Rock-umentary
A Documentary about the history or current activities of a rock and roll or heavy metal band. "Some Kind of Monster" is a Rock-umentary about the best heavy metal band on the planet: METALLICA!!!

And speaking of Metallica, I just got to borrow 2 new Metallica CD's! One is 6 songs from their "Binge & Purge" Tour (don't ask about the title), and the other is the St. Anger album! St. Anger really doesn't suck half as bad as most people say it does. Metallica's sound HAS changed, but they certainly didn't sell out at all. It's not my favorite album, but how can you hate "Frantic", "St. Anger" and "Some Kind of Monster", for which they named their award winning Rock-umentary? *Psh*, you change your sound just a bit, and people call you a sell-out. But I remain Metallica-faithful! \m/>_<\m/ ROCK ON!!!

No illusion today, because I've babbled on long enough. Here's the Prayer List:
My Pastor
ElvesAteMyRamen (Her end of the year work and computer)
MichaelsGirl91 and her friend Sandy
Miyoko-chan
The Victims of the Christmas Day Tsunami
Vankala 86, her friend Mel, and Mel’s fiancé as he serves in Iraq
xSakurax
Akane the Fox, her friend, and her friend's boyfriend in Re-hab
SILVER TIGER
Those who are suffering from breast cancer, as added by atreyu7slip

   Yo everybody. How's it going? (Dang, I ask that a lot, don't I?)

If you didn't see yesterday's post, please take a quick look.
First, I need to deliver some bad news. Vankalla 86's friend Mel's fiancé is being sent to Iraq in July. We really need to pray that God will comfort Rosa, Mel and her fiancé’s family, as well as keep him safe in the hopefully short time he will be asked to serve his country.
Also, I have a special Prayer Request for you all. On behalf of his family, atreyu7slip asks that we keep the people suffering from breast cancer in our prayers.

I'll go ahead and give you the complete Prayer List:
My Pastor
ElvesAteMyRamen (Her end of the year work and computer)
MichaelsGirl91 and her friend Sandy
The Victims of the Christmas Day Tsunami
Vankala 86, her friend Mel, and Mel’s fiancé as he serves in Iraq
xSakurax
Akane the Fox, her friend, and her friend's boyfriend in Re-hab
SILVER TIGER
Those who are suffering from breast cancer, as added by atreyu7slip
TravelingDisciple
And his friend Tigger
Honoto
jennifer92
My Grandmother
The family that had their house burn down
And Mark

Now that we've gotten all the serious matters out of the way, it's time to get back to the fun stuff and be happy! (Those who we're praying for would want that after all, right?)

I need to apologize (almost in a humorous fashion) to Lindsey for screwing up on my spelling in my past 2 or 3 posts. >///< Sorry about that. Both my Spell-checker and I are pretty illiterate when it comes to The Lord of the Rings. How could I be so uneducated about something that's so kick-@$$?

Any who, on to business. Normally, I'm not big on the whole "cute" thing when it comes to anime. But, if there was ever an exception to that, it would have to have been in one of my favorite stories from Inuyasha (one of the best animes of all time, baby!). For those of you who are Inuyasha veterans, do you remember a 2 part story about that half-demon named Shiori? Holy crap. Am I the only one that wanted to frikken' huggle her to death? She was just so cute!!! And that was just such a sad story that they surrounded her with. Man, she was just so sweet, and she got caught up in all that crazy crap. Those are the sort'a stories that just get to you, ya’ know? And the fact that Shiori had super-human abilities made the story even cooler (I believe she had the power to create strong demonic barriers, and even manipulate existing ones, unless my memory fails me, which it probably does -_-'). Ah well, at least it had a happy ending. ^_^d those are always good.

I've got another optical illusion based piece of artwork for you!
I posted these today because I REALLY wanted these out of my Photo Bucket account. These are 2 images, showing an artist's interpretation of a chaotic psyche (sy-kee). Though creepy-looking, these are supposed to portray an almost happy view of the inner mind, rather then one of terror.
This one is called, "Dream In, Dream Out":
Image hosted by Photobucket.com

And this one's called, "Where is my Mind?":
Image hosted by Photobucket.com

o.o......pretty drugged-up if you ask me.
Oh! And there's a new Quote of the Week up if you haven't already seen it!

b^_^d I'll see you all tomorrow!

   Quoth Thee.
Hey everybody! Wassup'? Did you all have a good Mother's day? I certainly didn't. -_-' Just like every other holiday, my brother and sister ruined it. Stupid little jerks. Thanks a lot.

Our favorite little Elvin warrior...I mean, new college graduate Lindsey (3lv3$ 8 m! R@m3n) was talking on her site yesterday about certain quotes from stories or other pieces of media that just seem to click with you. You know what I mean? That happens to me in a lot of the stuff I read, manga or otherwise, but they are usually just a sentence or 2, rather then an entire excerpt. But instead of boring you all to death with an "AwesomeDude898's favorite quotes list", how about I narrow it down to the ones that have to do with the manga I'm writing?

These all have some prominence in my story, so if you plan on reading it at all, you'll have a surprise in store if you remember them. Plus, they're pretty freakin' cool anyways.

"That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange eons even death may die"
-H.P. Lovecraft

"Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster"
-Friedrich Nietzsche (I have no idea who that is though)

"The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a Heaven out of Hell, and a Hell out of Heaven"
-Milton

The first quote has to do with a story that I'm re-creating (more info to come. ^_^), the second has to do with the development of Logan's character, and the third is one of the truest statements in para-psychology, which has a major part in my manga. So, anybody want to take a crack at what those quotes mean? ('Cept you, Lindsey. You're a philosophy student, so you don't count. >:P Nya ha ha! Just kiddin'!)

Here's the Prayer List for today:

My Pastor
ElvesAteMyRamen (Her end of the year work and computer)
MichaelsGirl91 and her friend Sandy
The Victims of the Christmas Day Tsunami
Vankala 86
xSakurax
Akane the Fox, her friend, and her friend's boyfriend in Re-hab
SILVER TIGER
TravelingDisciple
And his friend Tigger
Honoto
jennifer92
My Grandmother
The family that had their house burn down
And Mark

And here's another cool optical illusion within a piece of artwork!
This piece is called "False Perspective", for reasons that will be obvious for anybody with a keen eye.

I'll see you all tomorrow! ^_^ I've got to go to my youth-group now. -_-'
